OTTP stage 2 or 3 transmission mounts
okay so I took my car to my local shop because I couldn’t figure out what was causing my steering wheel to shake at high speeds and causing the car to pull to the right and I was told there was a lot of play in my mounts and was recommend to go with aftermarket mounts by the tech since I have full bolt ons and a tune so I wanted to ask your guys opinion on what I should get stage 2 or 3 and Would it be worth buying there engine mount as well?

Yep, parts stores carry upgraded moog bushings that are much better than stock. If you want the best of the best youll have to email gloria at powell race shop.

the bushings will be dryrotted some and cracking. 99 percent of the time they are. i have the ottp spherical cabs and all 4 of ottps mounts. the car is solid and not wheel hop. i reccomend them for sure.

I got the stage 3 mounts from ottp installed and my car vibrates like crazy bad enough you can hear the vibration and it vibrates all throughout the dash and you can feel it in the gas pedal and the tech said it needs time to break in and that it’s also cause they stiffer mounts then stock in your guys experience is this normal?

Have you checked out the zzp performance ones? They have solid rubber mounts so that they are not as harsh but still have the support you need. And definitely look at the lower control arm business, the rear flat bushings rip and cause wicked torque steer and all kinds of problems. I pressed in moog solid control arm bushings and that helped a lot.

Well now I know for next time thanks I thought something was up with the website and as far as the zzp ones i read some threads saying not to go with those and to go either Powell or ottp.

Powell is the best money will buy, it is track tested and proven and the owner helped design parts with GM Performance. No other vendor can back that up.
